Non-Neuropathic Form of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II: Clinical Cases
Background. Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type II is an X-linked hereditary disease from the lysosomal storage diseases group. The absence or malfunctioning of the iduronate-2-sulfatase enzyme leads to disruption in glycosaminoglycans (GAG) degradation ...

Assessment of functional capacity of teens who are Mucopolysaccharidosis type II carriers
Introduction: Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is an X-linked genetic disease which almost exclusively affects males. The disease presents a multisystem form, caused by the progressive accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in tissues and organs.

Abstract Despite regulatory progress being made in the past two decades, off‐label drug use in paediatrics remains pervasive, with prevalence estimated between 3% and 97% of prescriptions across different clinical settings. Off‐label use—defined as prescribing outside the conditions described in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)—is often ...

Allergic Reactions at Enzyme Replacement Therapy in Children with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is rare hereditary disease caused by changes in the IDS gene and associated deficiency of lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S).

Abstract Aims Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) requires long‐term, weekly intravenous infusions often lasting over 3 h each time, which can burden paediatric patients and caregivers and negatively affect their quality of life and treatment compliance.
